We were invited to the grand opening of a special manufacturing exhibit at the Discovery Museum (for kids) in Little Rock. Our family was asked to be one of several families to represent Caterpillar North Little Rock at the event. Governor Beebe was one of the speakers and later there was an opportunity to get a family picture with the Governor. However, The Middle wasn't feeling it. He refused to join us for the picture. Then the Governor promised him that he could have ice cream if he stood for the picture. Reluctantly, The Middle joined us for the photo. Later, there was no ice cream from the Governor. (Maybe he expected us to fulfill his promise???)
Months later, we were trying to get The Middle to do chores and we promised him something, maybe ice cream, if he did what he was told and he screamed "No. I don't trust Mommy, I don't trust Daddy, and I don't trust the Governor." Get used to it kid, it doesn't get any better. That's politics.
